So...
The 2.1 head is split in 3, the main head with its valves/precups etc, then the cam carrier and then the top cover.
The seal between the first n second parts is a basic flange sealant jobby...I clearly used inferior stuff on this one.
So was a fair strip down to get to it. Got some proper nice loctite oil resistant stuff on it now.
While at it... Replaced the o/s strut top and bearing as i did the n/s a couple months back n never did other side.
Also replaced the auto aux tensioner... Pig of a job. Interesting thing though, grease filled bearing jobby with rubber seals either end of it.
